Sue Forgelot – A socialist socialite, well-connected and influential, often the first to hear important news.
She’s secretly satisfied when people mention her royalty status (she is descended from a British branch of royalties, assumed to go as far as Sir Forgelot, knighted in the Crusades) – some of her closer ancestors settled in Hawai’i and she is thought to be descending from King Kamehameha Vth around 1850s by her mother side.
However, she pretends it is small matter, and while being actually very self-important, she insists people don’t mention it.
She is very well-connected, and pretends to know the Captain of the ship from when the ship was boarded during the Great Flee, although the Captain’s reality is questioned – nobody has ever seen them.
She suffers from an old injury that left her in need of a cybernetic limb – she goes to the Lower Decks and Hold in secret to meet with a brilliant engineer Luca Stroud (who had arrived with the refugees) to help her with the artificial limb adjustments.
